Comparative Literature 360 - Dreams, Visions & Supernatural

Ghosts, apparitions, and messengers from the beyond play a prominent role in the literary imagination. From religious visions to dream analysis, from medieval werewolves to psychological thrillers, literature of the supernatural pushes us to rethink what we know and how we know it. Readings may include works by Gogol, Cixous, Mann, Calvino, and Marie de France, as well as medieval dream and vision literature.
